I can't say I'm a fan of your welded galvinized exhaust. Is that welded straight to the block? It's a nice little flat head though.

So if you just add a large air filter you can get 30% more torque? How much would you get with no air filter?

 

[jace]

you should have chromed the shroud, i heard that increases torque by about 20%

 

[Rustydog2010]

Add a spoiler and thats an extra 50hp.

Also how did you seal the airfilter to the box? Good idea if it works well.

Tell us more about what your trying to do. You will get some good help here to make your kart run well.

i get 50% more air and 30% more Torque

I'm interested to know how you arrived at these figures.

How is that pipe attached to the block?

How is that pipe attached to the block?

I'd say it's threaded in, like most briggs mufflers.

 

[TorqueRanger]

Looks like it's threaded in but the galvanized pipe is jb welded to the threaded piece..

Atheros101, i have pretty much the same engine as well. Do you find that you have to constantly top up the fuel tank because it is so small. I find that my kart also stalls a lot because when the tank gets low, the pipes that go into the tank from the carb do not make contact with the fuel when you go over bumps. It seems to suck air, and then dies. It is really annoying!!

I bet you could increase the speed by adding a clutch and chain.

 

[atheros101]

i Used the old air filter and the air filter then i added a new filter and used the base of the old air filter on the bottom and used some stuff to stick it together but i forgot its name and i made the striaght pipe out of scooter handle bars and i did some work to the engine to make the torque go up and i broke the clutch drifting a corner somehow but landuse i had really bad troubles with the same thing but i made the tubes in the tank bigger but i didnt have problems with bumps

 

[atheros101]

O and the pipw comes right off when u unthread it out but it looks like its permenetly on there but its not

 

[Doc Sprocket]

i did some work to the engine to make the torque go up

Don't hold back- what did you do to it?
